Hello,

It's possible that you could get a scholarship based on merit or overcoming hardship or demonstrating financial hardship, but I believe scholarships are much more difficult to earn as an international student. (May want to double check).

You have a strong academic background, and good work experience from a reputable company. However, you seem to lack extracurricular and community leadership experience and strong professional leadership experience. You'll need to figure out what your story is - how are you different/unique from other applicants? I think you could target programs like Duke, Darden, UCLA, perhaps Chicago Booth. But really, it depends a lot on what you want to do and why you are going to school. Every school is different and you should do your research to find the ones that are good fits for you.

Best,
Mili
